From: Dan Nelson, Acting Dean of the College
To: President's Administrative Forum
The following announcement was sent to all students from Dan Nelson, and he
asked that it be shared with the PAF.
Dear Students:
I am writing as a follow up to President Wright's message earlier this week
about the police investigation of an incident involving four non-students who
allegedly threatened a Dartmouth student. The College has been informed by
Hanover Police that the four non-students, who are believed to be high school
students from Vermont, have admitted responsibility for the series of incidents
recently reported to DoSS and the Hanover Police involving the making of
derogatory remarks from a motor vehicle. The Hanover Police are continuing to
investigate and considering the charges that might be brought. I will be
contacting the principal of the high school attended by these individuals to
convey my concern and to discuss ways in which this situation might be
addressed within the school.
Obviously, it is a great relief to know that individuals who caused so much
distress to the College community have been identified, but this is no reason
for complacency. The issues discussed at yesterday's rally remain, no less,
significant issues for our community and remain our shared responsibility to
address.
If at any time you experience threats or other behaviors of this sort,
please contact the Department of Safety and Security immediately
(646-4000).
Best wishes for a successful conclusion to this term and for a restful
vacation.
